Amazon beware, heeeeeere’s HP! The company has unveiled a portfolio of cloud solutions that lets enterprises combine their existing IT infrastructure with third-party external cloud service providers, based on the OpenStack cloud operating system.

HP Cloud Services will deliver its initial offering, HP Public Infrastructure as a Service, as a public beta starting May 10. HP Cloud Services will also introduce, as a private beta, two additional Infrastructure-as-a-Service offerings: a relational database service for MySQL, and a block storage service that supports movement of data from one compute instance to another

Bill Veghte (Chief strategy officer and executive vice president, Software, HP): The convergence of cloud computing and mobile connectivity is changing the way infrastructures are built, applications are developed and information is delivered.
